Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) offer a sustainable and cost-effective approach to enhancing coastal resilience by working with natural systems rather than against them. This webinar will explore key NBS strategies, such as beach nourishment, living shorelines, rock fillets and mangrove protection, and how they reduce wave energy through natural dissipation and stabilisation. Designed for practitioners, designers, assessors, councils, and all those responsible for protecting and managing coastal environments for future resilience, this webinar delivers real-world case studies and implementation insights.
